Day 10 of 100 day challenge
Walking everyday and writing about it is way harder than I thought it'd be! I've set myself up for something that I want to do but it takes a lot of self motivation and creativity which is not how I feel every single day. Cold, grey, rainy days are not too inviting or invigorating to get out and enjoy nature. I'm doing my best though, some walks are short but I still learn and grow from each individual one. Being present and aware for that time, whether short or long, is a success for me. It's a daily meditation that makes me happy. I like challenges, things that evoke feelings and creating a balance of all the emotions I feel during my reflection of self. Determination and acceptance are a big part of staying focused on the goal, which is documenting the way I feel with incorporating this daily practice into my life. I'd like to continue with this for 365 days but I've started with a smaller goal, one not too overwhelming. This time of year is best to do this for me because I have more time available for walking and writing. I live at a slower pace during the winter and I'm glad i have these opportunities to experience what makes me feel whole. Spring, Summer and Fall months bring a very busy schedule for me with my gardening business and the amount of people around would not allow such serene, quiet places for me to be as focused. I feel lucky to be so passionate about something I love and it creates for me, a great sense of peace.
